I've only heard them under "show" conditions and was impressed. A pleasing, involving sound. If I were in the market for similar speakers, I'd consider them.

I can't say if they live up to the hype though because I have not read any of the hype.

E - One of my buddies is really considering those. I would love to bring him by for an audition if you are up for it.

Impressive.

Even in nearfield they have quite a presence. Still getting the sub dialed in to my liking.

I agree exactly what I felt. Detail was good but there was no soul or "foot tapping" when the music played.
